    30 Helpful Sites About Breast Cancer

    Nurse Assisting Patient Undergoing MammogramAfter having lost several loved ones to breast cancer and being in nursing, breast cancer awareness is something that is near and dear to my heart.  There are several websites out there that provide great information about breast cancer ranging from common causes all the way to cutting edge treatments.  If you are personally in the middle of a battle with breast cancer or even if you are simply close to someone that has breast cancer, finding information and a community of other people going through the same thing can be invaluable.  It is my hope that this list of 30 websites about breast cancer will serve as a great source of information and support for those that have breast cancer and their loved ones (including people that are pre-disposed to having breast cancer).
